hahahaha There is a little story that goes along with that burnout. I had cataracts in both of my eyes and couldn't see any of the gauges. The engine came up a little faster than I had expected. The shift light was set at 6800 and it came on, I backed off of the pedal a little, then a little more, and before I knew it I was further down the track than I had really wanted. If I had to take a guess I'd say the motor was close to 7500 during that. It did make for a good show though. I installed a burnout rev limiting switch the other day, so the motor will go up to about 6000 now.Mike Casella

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
